From Friedrich-Degeler-Platz we walk westwards into Hauptstraße, then up to SCHLOSS ARKADEN. We follow Olgastraße to the left for a short distance until we reach the crossroads, turn right there into Schnaitheimer Straße and after 30 m turn left into the path "Am Ottilienberg". At a slight bend, we climb a few steps on the right to the viewing platform of the Ottilienberg. After the detour, we follow the path further upwards, cross the Felsen-/Zeppelinstraße junction and turn right into the Panoramaweg. After about 500 m, we go up the steps on the left and reach the small road to the Waldorf School via a footpath. Follow this road down the hill and turn left onto the footpath at the bottom (hiking sign). Walk up the slope to the Naturfreundehaus on the right, where you can stop for a break. There we briefly turn left, then walk right into the forest and walk around the forest cemetery on the gravel path. We return to the town centre via Bergstraße.
